1-night Stay

July 14, 1986|By Ken Paskman

Evander Holyfield, who defeated Dwight Muhammad Qawi Saturday night in a junior heavyweight bout, spent the night in a hospital bed instead of celebrating. Holyfield complained of headaches an hour after the fight and was admitted to a hospital in Atlanta in a state of severe dehydration, Dr. Ron Stephens said. Stephens said Holyfield, who was released about 1:30 p.m. Sunday, will not suffer from any long-term effects from the dehydration.
